A SINNER’S GRACE - LUKE 15:20



The prodigal son did not just sin against his father, he sinned against the law of the community, getting his father’s inheritance before the death of his father and squandering his inheritance.

The moment he did such unlawful thing and walked out of the `community, they never expected him to step his foot into that place again, but just one person who’s ever waiting and longing for his coming; that person was his father, the one who no matter what the son had done, kept his arms opened for as long as he decides to come back.

What you’ve done is so wrong, you’ve sinned against God and against man, your act has caused many to sin, you have indeed poisoned the heart of many, no doubt, man may not forgive you, man will want you pay for your sins and wrong acts in full, the law will not spare you; but remember one thing stated in the Bible clearly that those that are under law shall be judged by the law but your father has given his grace, grace that is greater than all your sins, forget how big or how long; run to the one who is ready to erase all and focus on none but you.

If you focus so much on the people you sinned against, you will still spend more years in the pig-sty. Jesus is calling to you and knocking on the door of your heart, if you can open it, your journey isn’t far because he will meet you on the way to repentance just like the father did to his lost son, how great his the love of the father to a sinner and how deep is his hatred towards sin.

God can save you from the condemnation of the society, he can celebrate you when the whole world stand to disgrace you. He can wash you even if the whole world plan to throw dirt on you, he will run to you when your victims awaits you to run to them for punishment.

Don’t ignore his kindest gesture, you will always have that opportunity so far you still live, you can’t say when you will exit the world, accept that amazing grace you don’t deserve today and leave the pig-sty. Jesus loves you.
